Excerpt from Notes; Genealogical, Biographical and Bibliographical, of the Prime Family These Notes are printed, not for publication, but for more convenient preservation and reference, in one branch of the family to which they relate. They are dedicated by the compiler to the memory of his father, the Rev. Nathaniel Scudder Prime, D.D., a man of rare intellectual endowments, an accomplished scholar, a faithful minister of the Gospel, a friend and active promoter of popular and liberal education, a fearless and uncompromising advocate of what he believed to be true and right. He left his impress upon the generation in which he lived, and especially upon the hearts of his children; one chief incentive in whose lives has been a desire to emulate his zeal in the acquisition and diffusion of useful knowledge, and to keep in honor his name by carrying out the principles and aims which he instilled into their minds.
